What are the USB drive requirements for ReadySHARE on my NETGEAR router? | Answer | NETGEAR Support
What sort of USB storage? Is it anywhere on this list?

That isn't up to date or complete, but it offers some guidance.
But, in windows network it finds the netgear router as a networkthing and also as a computer. But not as storage.

It is FAT formatted but I tried NTFS as well.
I tried several different storage devices. USB stick, USB SSD, USB HDD.
They are without login protection.
None of them worked.
For SMBv1, something strange happened.
I enabled it but wanted to check if it is still enabled but now it is no longer in the features list. I don't know how to get it back.
I tried a lot of other changes in Windows, for instance in lanmanserver in regedit.
Nothing worked for now.
